Main Event
Roderick Strong defeated Bryan Danielson via pin fall after hitting a Super Gut Buster followed by a running boot.
After the match up, Roderick Strong grabbed the mic to thank “American Dragon” Bryan Danielson for all he’s done for the sport of wrestling! The entire locker room came out to show their respect and appreciation! Crowd chants, “Thank you Dragon!” as show goes off the air.
QUICK THOUGHTS:
WTF SONJAY?!?!?! How dare you attack Delirious from behind!!! This is Ring of HONOR! There’s no honor in jumping someone from behind! Because of your dumb ass, I didn’t get to see Delirious go crazy when they rang the bell!
“Dirty” Ernie Osiris lost his beard… are they going to let the homeless man take a shower too so he doesn’t stink up the building anymore?!?
I feel so bad for anyone that has to get into the ring with Rasche Brown… I’m waiting for the day when I report that Rasche Brown wins the match via murder! LOL!
Throughout the main event, Danielson looked like he was trying to hold back his emotion. A couple moments when they zoomed in on his face during a rest hold, he looked a little teary eyed. This guy is one of the best wrestlers in the world, and with him leaving ROH for WWE, I’m hoping that they do not destroy him or his character! If you have not seen an “American Dragon” match up, please look him up on Youtube! You will NOT be disappointed! He truly is one of the “Best in the World!” The one thing I’m sad about is that we’re not going to hear the “YOU’RE GONNA GET YOUR FUCKING HEAD KICKED IN!” chant anymore in ROH! That was the most amusing thing ever!
